Yes, Peter,
I know that in the Steinberg WaveLab use only Bob Katz’ metering system, still I thought that if they are cooperate then Katz’ Ambience Recovery might be available as a standalone plug-in. It is kind of suspiring that Mr. Katz was able t...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]OK, I disconnected my MiniMe speakers and left only Macondo to care sound in the room. I was listing for the last week Macondo. There is no bass, just upperbass horn at the bottom and The Injection channel a full range....

[quote user="nl"]I am interested that Romy has found some interest in But, if I wanted "neutral" I would use a gainclone-type amp. DHTs can be among the lowest-distortion amplification devices ever made. However, most DHT users like the funny additio...

Yes, the 30 drivers approach will ruin anything else BUT…

Wow, where did you see a 1kW
amplifier that is able to produce bass that does not make you vomit? Also, why
would you need power like this. If you go with 15” high sensitivity driver,
then you would need 20-30W max. Do not forget that your objecti...

James,
I never tried or heard about DML or BMR type drivers. I
looked them up and a few things they do give me a cold shoulder. It is
not about a selection of driver type or the topology of front channels. I though
initially that it was impo...

The most important in audio is a state of realization and obtaining this state is a matter of time I am afraid. Let pretend that tomorrow I will build/buy some kind of speaker that would do the perfect ULF channel ...

Last week I took the Vitavox drivers from the Midbass
horns. This week most likely I will take
the compression chambers from the installed horns. If I even redo the midbass
horns then to have the custom-fit compression chambers will be 30% of the...

I have order 4cu feet sealed enclosure for two 15 drivers. It
is relatively small box but I need to hit minus 6-8 dB at 50Hz. The collection
of the drivers I have would be following: Vitavox AK51 and 15/40, Altec 416B
and 515B. I like Vitavox tone...

No mater how ridicules the title of this article sounds on my site but I was quite glad to see the in the May’s issues of Stereophile the Robert J. Reina review of Advent loudspeakers. I do not think that Advent’s review is a sign of some kind of sin...

In continuation to the "A new round of Pacific’s DAC listening" post.... I have a number of revisions of this little contest between two DACs in this thread and in other threads. In all of them the Lavry 924 has a little edge over Pacific Microso...

I would like to overview the content of my thoughts on the subject. I feel that the first phase of my interest in single-stage Milq vs. DHT is over and I can make some observations.
The subject turned out to be more interesting and more changi...

I think I have too much time on my hands or use my time in highly stupid fashion but I decided to do today the experiment about witch I was thinking for a while. The experiment was “methodology clean” and lead me to quite interesting discoveries. Sin...

[quote user="Bill"]No matter which approach you
decide on of the six, there will always be an improvement over stereo. One does
not need super high end speakers except possibly for the main channels. Matter
of fact, all of my and Romy's surrounds ...

[quote user="Jorge"]Sometimes it is not so much as adding color, but taking it away. Most cheap cone drivers will exhibit a loose sound, so if you want to get the cellos more clearly, you need to get some meat off the bones or they wil get lost...

[quote user="Jordi"] I have not been able to respond to all your questions until now because I was infected by a trojan on this site several days ago. It SUCKS having this happene because it takes radical hours of time to track this crapware do...

The whole notion of the de Charlus’ quest I find to be very interesting. Charlus feels that only use horn topology and compression drivers is able to deliver “superior” audio result, at least it was his experience. I do not feel that horn topolog...

Virtualizer 3D FX2000 High-Performance 3D Multi-Engine Effects Processor. It is
pro machine, very non expensive that allows doing the same as Yamaha field processors
can do. I was hoping to u...

[quote user="drdna"]I would not restrict myself to the idea that things need to be a certain way or a certain configuration of the drivers or ports based on theory alone. I think it is important to ask what is interesting about the sound that the new...

As a new concert season is coming up with BSO opening night next week I was sprucing up my recording studio. The machine is 3MHz with 2G memory – plenty run SoundLab5. The SoundLab just record and play, I do absolutely nothing else in this software, ...

Though my new updated Bidat is too fresh but considering that I know very well how the Nichicon KZ progress with sound I think I can make some preliminary observations about the revised sound of my Bidat.
The change was not a large, less than I expe...

Josh, I am sorry, I
missed from you original post the fact that you delay the back tweeters. It just
looked and it is there, I just did not registered on me…
Yes, the play with delayed
channels is very cook thing. I did play with 10-30ms delay ...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]I do not disagree with
it but I would certainly question the practicality of it alone with
cost/benefit ratio. I think if the identically amount of effort would be spend
for other aspects then the benefits would be highe...

[quote user="haralanov"] Yes, you are right. Power – you have almost unlimited power. Dynamics – you have as much dynamics as you want. But there are a lot of associated problems with that kind of dynamics. The following illustration is taken by ...
